bug: :if-exists :append

Hello,

I cannot file bug on Sourceforge for some reason, so maybe someone
else may do it. I hope this bug will be corrected at least in the
development version.

When file is chattr-ed +a (append only) on GNU/Linux system, CLISP is
reporting: *** - OS-FILE-ERROR(EPERM): Operation not permitted
and is not appending to the file.

To reproduce, touch my-append-only-file and:
sudo chattr +a my-append-only-file

and try:

(with-open-file
   (str "my-append-only-file" :direction :output :if-exists :append :if-does-not-exist :error)
      (format str "~a~%" "Hello"))
